dnl
|
15 |
|
|
dnl This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads.
|
16 |
|
|
dnl It sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and
|
17 |
|
|
dnl linker flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special
|
18 |
|
|
dnl C compiler flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain
|
19 |
|
|
dnl compiler flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment
|
20 |
|
|
dnl variables.)
|
21 |
|
|
dnl
|
22 |
|
|
dnl Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for
|
23 |
|
|
dnl multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise).
|
24 |
|
|
dnl (This is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.)
|
25 |
|
|
dnl
|
26 |
|
|
dnl NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these
|
27 |
|
|
dnl flags, but also link it with them as well. e.g. you should link
|
28 |
|
|
dnl with $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS
|
29 |
|
|
dnl $LIBS
|
30 |
|
|
dnl
|
31 |
|
|
dnl If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use
|
32 |
|
|
dnl these variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC:
|
33 |
|
|
dnl
|
34 |
|
|
dnl LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS"
|
35 |
|
|
dnl CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS"
|
36 |
|
|
dnl CC="$PTHREAD_CC"
|
37 |
|
|
dnl
|
38 |
|
|
dnl In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute
|
39 |
|
|
dnl constant has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to
|
40 |
|
|
dnl that name (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX).
|
41 |
|
|
dnl
|
42 |
|
|
dnl ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads
|
43 |
|
|
dnl library is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to
|
44 |
|
|
dnl run it if it is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the
|
45 |
|
|
dnl default action will define HAVE_PTHREAD.
|
46 |
|
|
dnl
|
47 |
|
|
dnl Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or
|
48 |
|
|
dnl if you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based
|
49 |
|
|
dnl on work by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (www.fftw.org) (with
|
50 |
|
|
dnl help from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros
|
51 |
|
|
dnl posted by Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository.
